A radio DJ in Germany sent me an email requesting a CD - he said that "This CD has AWESOME VOCALS!" - and I am talking to someone else in Sweden about radio airplay. I spent an entire year recording this CD and I think you'll agree with others who have bought it that it was worth the work!

The Southern Medical Journal (circ. approx. 16,000) will use 8 of the instrumental tracks from the DesertSnow CD for the audio version of its monthly publication. Jennifer McKinney, Editorial Coordinator, had this to say: "I found your CD on CDBaby... and you're extremely talented! I know this music will work well with (the audio version of) our magazine." The Southern Medical Journal is published by Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins of Baltimore, Maryland.

I have been writing and recording music for 17 years. I really like New Age - Liz Story, George Winston, etc., and I have been told that my solo piano sounds alot like them. I also love Celtic music (esp. the high-energy dance music like Riverdance).

I traveled with the Continental Singers out of LA and toured the Caribbean and southern US for an entire summer. After that I was in several bands in Colorado and Seattle and then started recording on my own.

composure. a wide range of relaxation-traxx not only for scrubbed hearts...

a great compilation of "different" sounding compositions. softly played instruments meet these significant voices
on several under-the-skin tracks. that sort of music is
making me enjoying the long winter-evenings.
thank you so much, mr stahla !!!

I was floored by your music & website-- they are wonderful! I checked out most of the links and read the Blue Ballerina poem--very haunting--you have a gift for writing. I also loved your word choice for explaining about Desert Snow--you wrote "The light of stars from long ago first falls on our eyes after dozens of generations of people have come and gone." So true and poetic way to state it! I will pass your music & site along to some friends.
